Making the Asana product accessible and inclusive to the estimated one billion people worldwide affected by a disability is a core part of that mission.

On the Accessibility team, you’ll be leading a high-priority and rapidly growing effort, with the opportunity to shape the direction of accessibility at Asana. We are entering the next phase of our accessibility journey, and we are looking for a candidate who is excited about leveraging their a11y domain expertise to help us sustainably and effectively scale our program. You will bring a platform mindset to the role, valuing the empowerment of all teams at Asana to build and maintain accessible features.

What you’ll achieve

- Define and lead the strategy for shaping and effectively scaling an accessibility program that both empowers product teams to build accessible features and addresses customer needs.
- Work with leaders across the organization to maintain alignment and clarity around our accessibility objectives and commitments.
- Be the champion of our customers. Use customer insights and knowledge of assistive technologies to ensure we’re balancing compliance requirements with user experiences that elevate the usability of the product as a whole.
- Bring our Enterprise customers with us on our journey by maintaining trust in our commitments and leveraging customer relationships to validate and co-create our accessibility roadmap.
- Embed accessibility as a part of Asana’s ethos by advocating for accessibility as a shared core competency. The core Accessibility team can’t and shouldn’t go it alone; it will take rallying everyone at Asana to achieve our accessibility ambitions!
